Is there a comprehensive list of compatible cameras to connect via firewire?

is there a comprehensive and up-to-date list of compatible cameras to connect via firewire that will work with FMLE?
I saw this -http://www.adobe.com/support/documentation/en/flashmediaencoder/FME_DeviceMatrix.pdf
but it's out of date and limited in scope... any more information?
thanks

I'm in the process of trying to get this information for a client. Even with a paid AppleCare agreement, the only answer I'm getting is "look in the forums" and "look on the developer site" (although I have to give credit to the Tier-1 rep who's trying to help me.) The impression I'm getting is that they consider an exact list of header names to be proprietary information for some reason, and are going to great pains to try not to give out the information, but also to not create ill will amongst their customers by explicitly saying "that's proprietary".

  • Final Cut Not Recognizing Camera/Devices Connected Via FireWire

    I have a Macbook and a Macbook Pro and I'm having the exact same issue with both of them. I'm trying to capture DV footage into Final Cut Pro 5 via a Sony Digital Video Cassette Recorder GV-D1000 NTSC, I've also tried capturing into iMovie with the firewire device not being recognized there either.
    Device control is "FireWire NTSC Basic" and Capture/Input is "DV NTSC 48 khz" I've captured footage plenty of times and never had a problem until now. I've tried just about every audio/video setting there is including anamorphic as I saw suggested in a similar thread and nothing has changed. I've also tried different firewire cables, different devices including canon/sony and a panasonic cameras. When I connect a new device it shows "vtr ok" for a few seconds and then switches to "no communication". I've tried trashing my preferences and repairing permissions. I've updated quicktime/restarted the macs/unplugged the devices etc. I've also tried playing the tape on the sony box first and then opening FCP and attempting to capture, the footage stops playing and I get an error message that "video is not available". I'm capturing to a 500gb external harddrive that I've used before with no problems and is connected via usb. At one point it did allow me to start the capture now process, but it kept dropping a million frames and aborting, now it won't even let me get that far. I'm literally pulling my hair out, can some one PLEASE, PLEASE HELP ME??!!?

    Exactly what version of QT are you running now?...and FCP5.?
    Have you tried the Guiness solution yet?..shut everything down and unplug, wait 15 minutes, plug all back in, then turn on camera/deck first.
    Confirm that System Profiler recognizes the camera/deck and the deck is set in VTR mode (not camera mode), then open FCP.
    Could be a bad FW port (have you tried other ports on the mac?)
    Or, could be QT incompatibility...

  • I have a Sony DCR -SR32 which does not appear in the list of compatible cameras for imovie '11. Does anyone know if there is way to import files from this camera ?

    I have a Sony DCR-SR32 HDD video camera which does not appear in the list of compatible cameras for imovie '11. Does anyone know if there is way of importing video from this camera to imovie ?
    Thanks
    Pheona

    Greetings Pheona,
    That appears to be a hard drive based camecorder.  Usually these mount on the desktop of your computer as a little white hard drive icon.  If you go inside you should be able to find the movie files the camera is saving.  See what format they are (the last 3 letters at the end of the file name is a good place to start).
    You can drag the movie files from the camera hard drive to the computer to copy them.  Then convert them with a video file conversion program to a format iMovie can understand.
    Try converting one of the files using a video file conversion program like Video Monkey: http://videomonkey.org/downloads/
    In the "Convert to" drop down menu choose "DV" (Preferred), "Quicktime", or "MP4".  Then import the resulting file into iMovie and see if that works any better.
    If that program can't convert the files you can try another file conversion program:

  • Where is there a comprehensive list of Icons and what they stand for, represent, and/or mean

    Where is there a comprehensive list of icons that shows what each stands for, represents, or means?
    Specifically the small box near the pointing mouse or hand.

    That small box is probably the tooltips box discussed in the following thread. See if '''cor-el''''s solution works for you as it did for the original poster in that thread.

  • What Raw camera files are supported by Aperture Ver 3.6.  I have tried to file a list of compatible camera models, but as yet can't find one.

    What Raw camera files are supported by Aperture Ver 3.6.  I have tried to file a list of compatible camera models, but as yet can't find one.  My OS is OS X Yosemite 10.10.1.  I have recently bought a Canon 7D MkII and have found Adobe Lightroom does not as yet support the 7D MkII.  So I though Aperture may support the 7D MkII because Yosemite 10.10.1 now does.

    Hi Folk,
    I just found the answer to my question.  Yes it is supported with OS X Yosemite 10.10.1.  See the link below and the ***** Note at the bottom of the list.

  • Can't see mounted volume of my Canon G9 when camera is connected via USB

    Why can't I see mounted volume of my Canon G9 (with 8GB SD card) when camera is connected via USB. I just want to be able to download the movie files. Aperture does this fine on my other Mac but on my MBP I use Lightroom and it does not automatically download additional files a la Aperture.
    Also can't read via Kensington Multi-SD reader but suspect that's because it is a little older and does not support the higher capacity SD cards

    Digital cameras have several modes in which they can connect to a computer.
    One mode is sometimes called "Mass Store". The camera acts like a USB disk or thumb drive. It appears in the Finder and files can be copied from it. This obviously is what you are looking for.
    Another common mode is called PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol). In this mode, the camera will not appear in the Finder. You use special software to select and transfer the images. There are many applications available to do this: iPhoto, Aperture, Image Capture, the software provided by the camera's manufacturer.
    Consult your camera's manual to see if you can select the mode. My Nikon cameras can be set to either of the modes I mentioned. I think I have heard that Canon supports PTP only. I don't have a Canon, so I can't verify this. In that case you could use Image Capture, or Canon's software, or use a card reader. Card readers are usually faster than the camera anyway.

  • Is there a comprehensive list of what X-Spam headers Apple Mail will look at when determining junk mail status?

    Apple Mail has a preference to 'Trust junk mail headers in messages' but I can not find a list of what those headers are.  By trial and error I've learned the "X-Spam-Flag: YES" will work (exactly that, no extra info), but I'd like to know what other options there are... particularly if I can send a score/rating back and have it look at that.
    But I can't find a list of supported headers.  The Internet is full of "common spam headers" and yet none of them actually seem to work -- and lots of people who can't get it working with spamassassin which is incredibly common...
    So... is there such a list?

  • Second iMac as external monitor; Connection via firewire without a deck/cam

    Second iMac as an external monitor; Connection by firewire without a deck/camera possible?
    I spend a lot of hours to find an answer to the following question, unfortunately without any success:
    I’m working with a new iMac (Intel, OS 10.4.11) and Final Cut. Additionally I have an old iMac (G3, OS 10.3.9).
    I would like to use the FireWire port to transport a dv video stream from the new iMac/Final Cut to the old one so that the old one can be used as a monitor. So all I want is a software for the old iMac that shows an incoming FireWire dv-stream as a live picture.
    I tried vlc, videoviewer, iMovie, Vidi and btv. The problem is always the same: Final Cut (on the new iMac) does not find any FireWire/dv-device nor do all these software on the old iMac find a connection to Final Cut. I think the problem is that both sides are seeking for a device-setup at the FireWire-port on the other side. And none of them sends a signal like „yes I’m here and waiting for a dv-stream“.
    Another attempt was ScreenRecycler with VNC-client on the old iMac. Unfortunately on my old iMac Os 10.3.9 is the last possible OS and no vnc client on that system is fast enough to show a video in real time.
    I also tried virtualDV from Apples FireWire SDK 20. It works so far, that it claims to be a dv-device (on the old iMac) and so Final Cut at the new iMac says: „okay I’ll deliver you that stream“. The problem now is that virtualDV only can record that stream, not show it in real time.
    Is there any solution like virtualDV that shows a live preview and turns the iMac in a FireWire dv-device?
    Is there any solution that Final Cut simulates to be a FireWire dv-device itself and that another computer finds that device and understand the dv-stream?
    Thank you very much for your help.

    Don't think this is possible.
    You're better off using a DAC (for example the one made by Canopus) and put your DV in and get a compatible signal out the other end for connection to your monitor.
    I don't understand why you would want to go through a computer first, it would be a waste of time and add a huge delay to the signal.
    Finally, I wouldn't use a computer monitor as an external display, it would be useless in my experience. Why not just preview on the one you've got by going full screen in FCP? Also using a computer monitor as a preview/output monitor is not a good idea since it's so different from a normal TV and won't show the correct colour space or issues such as flickering and interlace problems, underscan etc etc.
    Seems like you're using a sledgehammer to crack a very small nut and that would be to use a DV camera via firewire and then connect up a monitor from that. (again using a convertor box if you have a connection problem.)

  • My new MacBook Pro and Imac can't recognize my digital video camera (Canon GL2) via FireWire 800 9 pin to 4 pin cable.

    My new MacBook Pro and Imac can't recognize my digital video cameras (Canon GL2 or Sony) via FireWire 800 9 pin to 4 pin cable. I've tried two different cables.  Any suggestions?  Thanks.

    Is your DV camera plugged in to AC power (not batteries only)? When you step down from 9 pins to 4 pins, you lose the "power" pins.

  • Problem importing video from a DV camera into the new imovie 10.0?  I have a Sony DCR TRV17 connected via Firewire port that worked in 9.0.9 but not under 10.0...

    I have a Sony DCR TRV17 that I used to pass through VCR tape video via Firewire port to my Mac Pro under Imovie 9.0.9 without an issue.   Now under Imovie 10.0 the video shows in the import window, I can start recording yet when I stop recording the recorded clips do not show up anywhere.  The movie file I'm creating still indicates that I still need to import video.   Anyone having similar problems?

    Hey Dave,
    I had this issue only once before but was lucky enought to find it was a specific event causing the import to freeze. It took me some time to isolate the problem though. I would recommend letting it sit there for some time before you try any troubleshooting. Larger libraries can take long periods of time to update.
    This is a good thread for this issue.  I would first try removing the iMovie.plist as elikness mentions.
    1. Open Finder
    2. Click on "Go" in the menu bar.
    3. Click on Go To Folder on the dropdown menu.
    4. Type "~/Library/Preferences/" in the text field and click Go.
    5. Find the com.apple.iMovie(some number).plist file and move it to Trash.
    Quit and relaunch iMovie to see if this took care of the issue before attempting the next step. If you're still having an issue then you can try what I needed to do which is isolating the problem event.
    1. Open Finder.
    2. Go to the Movies folder. You should see iMovie Events here.
    If you have a larger event library I'd recommend renaming the iMovie Events folder to say, "iMovie Events COPY". Then create a new empty folder named “iMovie Events”. When you launch iMovie 9.0.9 all events will be missing at this point. Quit iMovie if it is open. Then you can either drag each event from iMovie Events COPY to iMovie Events or you can select and drag several at a time. Each time you drag an event folder back into the new iMovie Events folder launch iMovie 9.0.9 to see if you are having the same issue. Wash and repeat until either you have found the problem event or you have imported all events.
    If you find the problem event you can reimport the clip from iMovie 9.0.9 by going to File > Import > Movies and navigating to that events iMovie Original Movies folder to find the clip.
    Hope this helps!

  • Is There A Comprehensive List Of Actions Using Modifier Keys?

    I have been using Macs for nearly five years and thought I was reasonably proficient.
    A few minutes ago I was told that it is possible to MOVE a file from one HD to another (rather than COPY it) by holding down the Command key.
    I wonder how many more there are that I don't know!
    So are they listed somewhere? I have looked in all my books and the Help menus but can't find anything.
    Ian.

    Thanks Duane.
    I have just downloaded it and given it a test run.
    It's an interesting application but it seems rather limited. When used with Final Cut Express it only listed half a dozen keyboard shortcuts when there are actually scores if not hundreds.

  • Is there a definitive list for compatible printers for wireless printing?

    Heres the deal, I have a brand new Mac Book Pro and I have been having a real fun time trying to get a linksys wps54g wireless print server... I have done my homework, and I know that I have to download the cupps driver for the printer since the HP printer I have (C4280) does not support network printing in mac os x as well as I have to add the printer manually with the ip address, the location, and selecting what driver to use... My only problem is i cant seem to find a driver that supports my printer...am I stuck untill one gets created or is there another way around it? I was thingking about doing a wired printsever and daisy chaining it to my wireless router... any help would be much appreciated!

    I would recommend searching for an answer on the OX 10.4 Printing & Faxing forum:

  • Is there a way to establish connectivity via FireWire 800 port on iMac running Mavericks & my ZR300?

    I have an Intel-based iMac running OS X (10.9.1 or Mavericks).  I can't get the iMac to recognize my ZR300 DV camcorder is connected.  I connect the camera to the iMac using a DV connection on the camcorder and a FireWire 800 connection on the iMac.  Is there a driver or some other fix to enable communication between the camcorder and the iMac?

    Hi jonrleist!
    Thanks for posting.
    Your Mac should at least see the camera.  No additional drivers are required to make the connection.  It is possible the cable you are using has something to do with this.  Have you tried using other FireWire 800 cables?

  • Plugging camera in G5 via firewire showing up in Motion or FCP

    I have a camera that I would like to plug into Motion or Final Cut Pro via the Firewire plug in my G5. Is it possible to have this live feed show up in Motion or FCP? I would also like to know if I could put a Green background in back of a subject as it's being fed into Motion or FCp to use a Green Screen?
    Thanks in advance

    Motion won't capture for you - FCP will. Neither is a live keyer... Although the talented Peter Wiggins has a plugin that will bring live iSight into the timeline, so I suppose you could use that to key with - I haven't tried it yet... See this thread:
